Used to do it a lot on the 146 back in the day.

It did benefit by reducing taxy times quite a lot (about half), saving fuel and all that. Not great for passenger comfort if you were too ham footed but it could be done smoothly with the 146 manual brakes.

Edit: We used to be able to get off Southampton 02 at the bravo intersection, about a 400 meter ground run.
